What a wonderful re-setting, re-charging and re-connecting week we had! The Lodge is just wonderful. We enjoyed our twice daily yoga, an ice bath, tranquil paddle boarding, drawing, a fantastic thunderstorm and much more! Our Tetra Pod offered us full exposure to nature whilst offering complete privacy. Ashley and Rory create an atmosphere of relaxation and freedom, whilst being fantastically organised, with everything running smoothly and efficiently. Daisy's food was sublime and has inspired us to only make nurturing food from now on! We will definitely be back!! Thank you so much, Kelly & Derry xxx

highly recommend cara creek if you're looking to reconnect with nature, good people and nourishing food. i hosted a week long retreat and we all felt very well taken care of. the place was clean, organized and so efficiently run. Ashley and Rory were so kind and attentive, making us all feel at home. they've built something super special that combines the simplicity of being close to nature and comfort. for the students the environment allowed them to really relax and settle into quiet and stillness. i can't wait to be back!

As a yoga teacher and experienced yoga retreat facilitator I can highly recommend this beautiful place! It is surrounded by untouched nature, close to an amazing waterfall and natural pools. Ashley and her team will ensure that you and your participants will have the most beautiful experience! Looking forward to hosting our next retreat there soon.

We hosted a retreat in Cara Creek, and everything was extremely beautiful. You can see the space has a lot of love put into it and Ashley and Rory made everything so easy; always available to help us in any way, always open for new things. They also provided us with an amazing chef who nourished everyone with delicious food. I will 100% repeat my experience of organizing at Cara Creek
